Hi David,

This is great! It gives me some better insight into the words being used to 
describe things.

Did I understand correctly from collection1.png that a "Collection" is a node 
with 2 or more edges? Or is it more generic than that - a grouping of any of 
the nodes or an element in the power set of the graph? It seems to me, from the 
current working model, that it is the latter.

I have to push back on the assertion: Regardless of minting, SBOM has 14 
members. Imagine a situation where one is not aware of all the elements that 
exist on the graph. They may be able to generate a serialization for one 
Collection. You can imagine there being a serialization for every element of 
the power set of the graph, thus leading to overlaps. That said, I don't think 
this discounts a serialization of the set containing all the Elements in the 
graph.

I'm not sure if last meeting touched on "ContextualCollection". IMHO, there 
doesn't seem to be any practical reason to include this distinction as you can 
certainly find some "context" to any Collection in a random graph.
